Reche Caldwell and Keenan McCardell: 2008 Plans?

[Schneed10]

I disagree that it makes a good stable of WRs. I think it makes a serviceable stable of WRs.

We've got the speed to stretch the field, and we've got the savvy to find holes in zones, and we've got good route-runners. That's why we're able to move between the 20s so well. But we stall when we hit the red zone, and that's why we need a big one. We have no red zone threat with ARE and Moss being so small. When the field shortens, they don't have the room to use their speed. We need a WR who can outleap DBs on fade routes and fade-stops, and we need one who can actually shield the ball with his body.

Just one is needed. And he can't just be big like Mix is, he's got to be fast enough and a good enough route runner to represent a real threat. It would make a good complement to the guys we have.

All that said, I think we have bigger needs. We're getting old in a lot of spots. Griffin, Springs, Washington, Jansen, Randy Thomas, they're all getting old. Some/all can still be effective when healthy but we need to build depth behind them.

We also desperately need a free safety :-(
